Today is Dwadashi of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. It is observed as Shukla Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 9:48 am–11:06 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:03 pm to 12:44 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 30 December 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 09:55 pm (prev day) to 06:56 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 06:56 pm to 03:29 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 10:56 pm (prev day) to 08:38 pm, then Rohini, from 08:38 pm to 05:53 pm (next day) on Saturday, 30 December 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:48 am to 11:06 am. It is a period of about 90 minutes that is traditionally avoided for starting new ventures; its timing depends on the weekday and on local sunrise and sunset, so it differs from city to city.
In Delhi on Saturday, 30 December 2017, sunrise is at 07:13 am and sunset at 05:34 pm; moonrise is at 03:09 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:03 pm to 12:44 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:30 am–09:48 am; Labh 01:41 pm–02:59 pm; Amrit 02:59 pm–04:16 pm. Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight parts each; Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious ones.
The Panchang is computed for the exact coordinates of Delhi (28.61°N, 77.21°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Delhi's local time.
“Panchang” means “five limbs”: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the lunar mansion the Moon occupies), yoga (a Sun–Moon angular combination) and karana (half of a tithi). Together with Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya, they are used to choose favourable times for prayers, travel and new beginnings.
